  • So after all the graft and the testing day that you've seen in the previous video, it's finally time for the Cortina race car to turn its wheels in a competitive race, at Silverstone circuit in the Modified Ford Series. Follow along to see how Josh got on behind the wheel throughout the day in variable weather conditions, and see how Matt and Jack navigated their way around the track to film it!

    Brilliant car and series love it
    Surprised during the race, the driver was holding steering one handed whilst left hand was on his knee,even at close proximity to other race cars .
    I'm sure BARS course would advise otherwise .
    Anything can happen with a race car, burst tyre etc.
    Be good to know the reason.

    • @avin_the_crack
      @avin_the_crack  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Don’t think there is a particular reason. Looks like it only happened when entering a corner that needed a couple of downshifts, so perhaps it was just anticipating that
